The "Trek Elite"
advanced course offers a unique blend of everything
that makes for an epic race experience; combining
the best elements of multi-sport and adventure
racing into a classic single-day format. This
racecourse has been formulated to offer the perfect
mix of mental and physical challenge, teamwork
and decision-making, as well as speed and endurance.
This year's host region on the south shores of Rice Lake offers all of the key features which make it an ideal location for the ninth annual production of Storm the Trent. Approximately 65-70km of total distance will be covered over a course that will combine scenic flatwater paddling, beautiful forest trail runs, navigation and route-finding sections, as well as fun and challenging "mix-of-everything" mountain bike stages.
The 2010 Trek Elite race features a fantastic
new racecourse design; a beautiful resort venue
with on-site accommodation options; as well as
tons of great prizing for top finishers! Racers
will pass through a series of checkpoints on both
marked and unmarked sections, with options for
strategizing their route selection to maximize
speed and efficiency. Complete details are provided
in the racer information package below.
